The Living Mural workshop was inspired by Unravel’s group residency at the Whitney Museum of American Art, for the Dreamlands exhibition in December 2016. While we were there we got a rare chance to see one of Stan Van Der Beek’s Movie Murals (pictured below), and thought, why not create a workshop where participants can explore multiple projection through live play and experimentation?

Working in a practical, hands on way with collage, shapes, patterns and unusual materials, participants will create slides and acetates for projection in the gallery space.
The day will culminate in a live, multiple projection of all slides made – turning the gallery space into a constantly changing montage – a living mural.

Participants will be invited to capture this performance using cameraphones, and upload using the hashtag #livingmural… encouraging participants to explore the shift from analogue to digital and how new relationships can be created through transforming mediums.

We’ll be at the Higgins from 11-5pm Saturday and 2-5pm Sunday. Come join us!
